Guarded Tongue

Guarded tongue, eyes shut tight
Don’t let in the morning light
Tears cant fall
Voice cant call
Im scared to move myself at all

Its fear that has brought me to this place
Its failure that has brought us here
The things of my past
Now chase us fast
Darkness and pain fills our lungs

Im constantly drowning in error
Im constantly trying too hard
I feel like Im not getting anywhere in your eyes
Even though I see what has changed

I love too much
I care too deeply
It’s the part of me that hurts me the most

Fear please leave me
Pain cease hold
I  am choking on my past enough as it is

I am scared
So scared to lose you
I am broken and battered
And tired of the fight
I just want to be
To be the only one for you my love

To be
To be perfect for you

But I am not
I am not the one
I am not the perfect one
Because of all that I have done

It shall haunt us forever
It shall never leave our side
I am scared
I am scared to lose the one that I love so dearly

You walk away
And my heart breaks

You take a fall
And I try to catch you

My love is not enough
My pain is too strong

There is too much hurt here for us to last

Do you fear the loss?
Do you pain in knowing that this will be our life …
The tears, the pain, the haunting?

I have cursed the ground that I walk on
I have cursed my life
Do you still want to be with me?
Do you still want to love me?
Do you still vow to hold me
Until the bitter end?

Are these words empty to you?
Can you see the sorrow in my soul?
Do my eyes open like windows to bare
The pain that I carry each moment?

O my love
I cannot move on anymore
It is too hard for me to keep a steady path It is so hard for me to bare
I cannot live hurting you
I cannot love myself hurting you

I am so overwhelmed with sorrow
My heart is torn apart
Please my love.. please forgive me someday

O my love to take away all the pain

That would be my wish;

Is for you to find happiness
Even if that means not being in your life.
Though I would surely die

This one got to me. I guess people just instictivly like things they can identify with best. You are really good at telling exactly how you feel about things.

Thanks :)

Reading this a second time really touched me. I can sense the strong emotion portrayed here, and the rhyming is a good effort. Good job!
